Ho Ho Ho, Yule Do. Christmas Beers

You might not want to think about it but the festive season is upon us and the busy little elves (that would be Richard) at Brewster’s have already brewed the Christmas Beers for this year. So in the Brewery that is Christmas done and dusted. All over bar the shouting and the drinking.

We have added a new beer this Christmas, it is called Ho Ho Ho, (how could we resist the Junior Brewster’s first foray into marketing). At 4.8% it is in Wicked Woman territory and it encapsulates a certain independent attitude that only British hops can bring. Golden but with great aroma and substance from Bramling Cross (spicy berries), First Gold (orange) and Pioneer (lemony grapefruit). Wicked m/

We are also bringing back that Christmas party favourite, Yule Do, watch out for the mistletoe everyone! At 4.3% pale, crystal and chocolate malts give a rich red colour and depth of malt flavour. English hops meld with the malt to give a full depth of flavours. We have chosen Fuggles and its best mate, Goldings for that traditional smooth lightly spiced aroma. Then we went a bit mad and loaded in Bramling Cross for its spicy berries and First Gold for its citrus orange character. Merry Christmas every one.
